The only reason I waited so long to buy a pair of Athleta’s Fleece-Lined Leggings ($89) is because I knew that once I owned them, it would be very, very hard for me to wear any other pants. And I love my other pants.
I am not an athleisure aficionado. I wear workout clothes when I’m working out and not-stretchy clothes when I’m not. I love real clothes. But now I’m typing this on the seventh straight day of wearing leg fleeces to walk, lounge, cook, eat, play board games, read, do literally everything one does over the holidays, and I have never been so snug and so comfortable and so cozy.
My fleece legging fantasy life has come to an end this week, and now they’re relegated to weekends, but our time together was glorious. And I wish the same kind of pant experience for you. I cannot recommend these soft, tight-but-in-a-gentle way, flattering (yes, really) warm pants enough.
